Foreign destination [Settings]

The name by which this foreign destination is known for administrative purposes.

To view this page in the console, click the following path:

  • Service integration -> Buses -> bus_name -> [Destination resources] Destinations -> destination_name.


    Configuration tab

    The Configuration tab shows configuration properties for this object. These property values are preserved even if the runtime environment is stopped then restarted. See the information center task descriptions for information about how to apply configuration changes to the runtime environment.


    General Properties

    Identifier

    The identifier by which this destination is known for administrative purposes.

    Type the name of the destination as configured on the foreign bus. This must match exactly the name of the target destination that exists in the foreign bus.

    Information Value
    Required No
    Data type String

    Bus

    The name of the foreign bus on which this destination is defined.

    This must match exactly the name of a foreign bus administrative object that is already defined on the bus on which this foreign destination is being created.

    Information Value
    Required No
    Data type String

    UUID

    The universal unique identifier assigned by the system to this destination for administrative purposes.

    Information Value
    Required No
    Data type String

    Type

    Whether this bus destination is for a queue, topic space, or some other type of destination.

    Information Value
    Required No
    Data type String

    Description

    An optional description for the bus destination, for administrative purposes.

    Enable producers to override default reliability

    Select this option to enable producers to override the default reliability set on the destination.

    • If an application is producing messages to a destination and that application does NOT specify a reliability for the message, then the Default reliability setting is used.

    • If an application is producing messages to a destination and that application specifies a reliability, then the application reliability is ONLY applicable if the Enable producers to override default reliability property is set to True. Otherwise, the Default reliability setting is used.

    Information Value
    Required No
    Data type Boolean

    Default reliability

    The reliability assigned to a message produced to this destination when an explicit reliability has not been set by the producer.

    This reliability setting is used if a message has not set a reliability or if the SIBDestination.overrideOfQOSByProducerAllowed is set to False.

    • If an application is producing messages to a destination and that application does NOT specify a reliability for the message, then the Default reliability setting is used.

    • If an application is producing messages to a destination and that application specifies a reliability, then the application reliability is ONLY applicable if the Enable producers to override default reliability property is set to True. Otherwise, the Default reliability setting is used.

    Information Value
    Required No
    Data type drop-down list
    Range

    Best effort nonpersistent

    Messages are discarded when a messaging engine stops or fails. Messages might also be discarded if a connection used to send them becomes unavailable or as a result of constrained system resources.

    Express nonpersistent

    Messages are discarded when a messaging engine stops or fails. Messages might also be discarded if a connection used to send them becomes unavailable.

    Reliable nonpersistent

    Messages are discarded when a messaging engine stops or fails.

    Reliable persistent

    Messages might be discarded when a messaging engine fails.

    Assured persistent

    Messages are not discarded.

    Maximum reliability

    The maximum reliability of messages accepted by this destination.

    Producers cannot send messages to this destination with a reliability higher than the value specified for this property.

    Information Value
    Required No
    Data type Integer
    Range 0 through 9

    Send allowed

    Clear this option (setting it to false) to stop producers from being able to send messages to this destination.

    Include an RFH2 message header when sending messages to WebSphere MQ

    If selected, messages sent to WebSphere MQ include an RFH2 header. The RFH2 header stores additional information to that which is stored in theWebSphere MQ message header.

    This property applies when the foreign bus that hosts the target destination is a WebSphere MQ queue manager or queue-sharing group. When service integration converts a message from the service integration format to WebSphere MQ format, by default it includes an MQRHF2 header in the WebSphere MQ message. This header contains message attributes, such as JMS message attributes, that are not WebSphere MQ message attributes and therefore do not appear in the WebSphere MQ message descriptor (MQMD). Some WebSphere MQ applications cannot process messages that include an MQRFH2 header. If messages sent to this destination will be processed by WebSphere MQ applications that cannot tolerate an MQRFH2, clear this option.

    Dynamic updates to this property are effective immediately.

    Information Value
    Required No
    Data type Boolean
